Technical Field
[0002] The present disclosure relates to a cyclic di-nucleotide analogue, a pharmaceutical composition thereof and a use thereof as STING agonist and for activation of the STING pathway.
Background
[0003] Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING), also known as T1MEM173, MITA, MPYS and ERIS, is an important signaling molecule in innate immune signaling. The protein encoded by this gene contains a 5-stranded transmembrane structure and plays an important regulatory role in the immune response associated with viral or bacterial infection. STING is a pattern recognition receptor which detects exogenous nucleic acids in the cytoplasm and activates signal transduction pathways associated with type I interferon responses. In addition, it has been shown that STING is involved in the regulation of apoptotic signaling by interacting with the type II major histocompatibility complex (MHCII). Studies performed on human tumors with spontaneous T-cell infiltration have shown that CD8+ T-cell infiltration is closely associated with the transcriptional profile of type I interferons (Harlin et al., Cancer Res, 2009; 69(7): OF1). Mechanistic studies carried out on mouse models have shown that T cell activation processes against tumor-associated antigens show abnormalities in experimental animals with defective type I interferon signaling (Diamond et al., J. Exp. Med., 2011; 208(10): 1989; Fuerte et al., J. Exp. Med, 2011; 208(10):2005). Further studies on tumor recognition by the innate immune system in vivo and on the signaling pathways involved in this process, such as tumor-triggered IFN expression mediated by antigen-presenting cells (APCs), have revealed that the STING signaling pathway can be activated by cytoplasmic DNA, and that these exogenous nucleic acids can be recognized by cyclic-GMP-AMP synthetase (cGAS) and then catalyzes the generation of cyclized nucleic acids such as cyclic GMP-AMP (cGMP) which can act as endogenous ligands activating STING signaling (Sun et al, Science, 2013; 339(15): 786). Activated STING can subsequently induce autophosphorylation of TBK1 kinase and phosphorylation of interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3), and phosphorylated IRF3 can further activate the gene transcription process of type I interferon and regulate the synthesis and secretion of type I interferon, which in turn induces an immune response. In summary, it has been shown that the STING signaling pathway plays an extremely important role in the tumor recognition process by the innate immune system, and the activation of this signaling pathway on antigen-presenting cells is directly related to the activation of T cells against tumor-associated antigens. Based on its role in tumor immune recognition, it can be expected that activation of STING signaling by drugs or other pharmacological approaches can enhance IFN expression and have a positive effect on tumor therapy. Therefore, the development of STING signaling agonists for the treatment of tumor diseases has become a hot research topic.
[0004] In addition, it has been shown that the stimulation of STING signaling pathway activation also contributes to antiviral responses. Loss of functional response at the cellular or organismal level demonstrates that viral load cannot be controlled in the absence of STING. Activation of the STING signaling pathway triggers immune response leading to anti-vascular and pro-inflammatory cytokines against the virus and mobilizes the innate and acquired immune systems. Thus, small molecule compounds with agonistic effects on the STING signaling pathway have potential for the treatment of chronic viral infections and could be used, for example, to treat HBV.
[0005] Several cyclic di-nucleotide analogs with agonistic effects on the STING signaling pathway have been disclosed (WO2014/093936, WO2014/189805, WO2014/189806, WO2016/120305, WO2016/145102, WO2017/027645, WO2017/075477, WO2017/093933, WO2017/123657, WO2017/123669, WO2017/161349, WO2017/186711, WO2018/009466, WO2018/009648, WO2018/009652, WO2018/ 045204, WO2018/060323, WO2018/065360, WO2018/098203, WO2018/100558), but at present, no STING agonist has been approved for marketing.
